Perhaps you VN people could PM me on exactly which words are kosher and which ones aren't. Foxy has ignored my earlier request for this. While you're at it, please help her define "insufficiently masked profanity," a term that boggle my mind -- either it's not one of the (secretly) forbidden words because it's simply not the word, or nobody was fooled for a second into thinking that there's such thing as a fluxing glasshole.

Since I've never torrented a song, or downloaded illegally, I'm not worried.

There's some delight in ale and wine,
And some in girls with ankles fine,
But my delight, yes, always mine,
Is to dance with Jak o' the Shadows.
